Abu Dhabi and the pandemic crisis. The Covid-19 response as an opportunity towards a new social condition
(Altralinea, 2021-02)
The Covid-19 pandemic is ongoing with countries and cities reacting in different ways. Abu Dhabi is considered a success story, as it managed to flatten the curves, minimize casualties and still display a sense of confidence ...
Abu Dhabi public spaces; Urban encounters, social diversity and (in)formality
(Motivate Media Group, 2021-03)
Abu Dhabi public spaces is the result of a two-year research project on urbanity and the behavioral mapping of the inhabitants' daily practices. Focusing on fourteen well-known public spaces - both formal and informal - ...
Sensitivity analysis of control parameters in particle swarm optimization
(Elsevier, 2020-02)
Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is a powerful nature-inspired metaheuristic optimization method that may determine optimal solutions of engineering problems in fewer evaluations compared to other optimization methods. ...
Effects of Rotation Speeds on Electrical Submersible Pump Performance Under Two-Phase Flow
(Springer, Singapore, 2021-12)
Electrical submersible pumps (ESP) are a pump classification, which is typically connected to an application of transporting fluids located in submersible elevations into supply pipelines. These pumps type can be found in ...
Simulation of Jet Impingement Cooling of a Stationary Hot Steel Plate
(IEEE, 2020-06)
The flow interaction and the heat transfer between an impinged water jet and a hot steel surface affects the cooling process at the run-out table (ROT) of the steel mills facility. Eventually, the steel quality in terms ...
Thermal Imaging Fault Detection for Rolling Element Bearings
(IEEE, 2020-04)
In rotating machinery, rolling element bearings are one of the most critical components and a large majority of system failures arise from faulty bearings. Hence, there is an increasing demand to find an effective and ...
Study on the 2-D Simulation of the Cooling Process of Steel Strips on a Run-Out Table
(2020-07)
he cooling process of steel strips on the run-out table (ROT) is simulated using 2-D modelings. The effect of nonuniform heat flux in the width direction on the coiling temperature is investigated using transverse 2-D ...
CFD Analysis on the Single-Phase Flow Electrical Submersible Pump Performance Curve
(Public Knowledge Project, 2020-12)
Most of the industrial fields, especially oil and gas, involve the application of electrical submersible pump (ESP) for flow transport. The pump performance will deteriorate depending on conditions of usage. The main ...
Effects of Near-Wall Vortices on Wall Shear Stress in a Centrifugal Pump Impeller
(2021-03)
Boundary layer separation and vortex formation cause unappealing deterioration of pump pressure head. The purpose of this research paper is to correlate formation of vortices with near-wall shear stresses resulting in a ...
A Review on Electrical Submersible Pump Head Losses and Methods to Analyze Two-Phase Performance Curve
(2021)
Electrical submersible pumps (ESP) are referred to as a pump classification whose applications are based upon transporting fluids from submersible elevations towards a fixed pipeline. Specific ESP pumps are utilized in ...
